Narrative

EE was cutting a conveyor belt with EE's safety knife. As EE finished EEs cut, the knife came out of the belting and jabbed into EEs wrist, causing a small puncture through the glove into EEs left wrist. The EE removed EE's glove and saw blood. We wrapped the cut with a compression bandage at the office and transported EE to the ER where they placed two stitches to close the wound.
